What this shows — how Quinn Wolcott called the 180 pitches that were taken (no swing), graded against the tracked rulebook strike zone. He got 168 right. Below, only his misses are plotted, alongside every pitch the ABS (Automated Ball-Strike System) reviewed on a challenge.

The zone, as he called it

Challenge 1: Francisco Alvarez — the ump called it a ball, the robot ruled ball (upheld — ump confirmed).1Challenge 2: Francisco Alvarez — the ump called it a ball, the robot ruled ball (upheld — ump confirmed).2Challenge 3: J.T. Realmuto — the ump called it a ball, the robot ruled strike (OVERTURNED — ump overruled).3Challenge 4: Trea Turner — the ump called it a strike, the robot ruled ball (OVERTURNED — ump overruled).4

Run impact from the count run-value table: a missed strike three is worth far more than one on 3-0.

ABS — the Automated Ball-Strike System

4 pitches went to the robots · 2 overturned (ump overruled) · 2 upheld (ump confirmed). This is the ABS system’s own measurement — Hawk-Eye optical ball-tracking, not our model.

  1. 1Francisco Alvarez — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
  2. 2Francisco Alvarez — ump said ball, robot ruled ball: upheld.
  3. 3J.T. Realmuto — ump said ball, robot ruled strike: overturned.
  4. 4Trea Turner — ump said strike, robot ruled ball: overturned.

Our tracked-rulebook zone matched the ABS ruling on 3 of 4 — a zone-definition gap (ABS grades a standardized, height-based zone), not our error.
